並列タイトル等DPP-4阻害薬のひとつリナグリプチンは，正常血糖アポリポ蛋白E欠損マウスにおける血管内皮機能を改善し，動脈硬化を抑制する
一般注記Background: Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors have vasoprotective effects. This study investigated whether a recently approved DPP-4 inhibitor, linagliptin (Lina), suppresses atherogenesis in non-diabetic apolipoprotein-E deficient (ApoE−/−) mice, and examined its effects on endothelial function.Methods and results: Lina (10 mg/kg/day) was administered orally to ApoE−/− mice for 20 weeks. Lina reduced atherogenesis without alteration of metabolic parameters including blood glucose level compared with control (P b 0.05). Results of immunohistochemical analyses and quantitative RT-PCR demonstrated that Lina significantly decreased inflammatory molecule expression and macrophage infiltration in the atherosclerotic aorta. Lina administration to ApoE−/− mice for 9 weeks ameliorated endothelium-dependent vasodilation compared with that in untreated mice. Plasma active glucagon-like peptide-1 (GLP-1) level was significantly higher in the treated group (P b 0.05). Exendin-4 (Ex-4), a GLP-1 analog, ameliorated endothelium-dependent vasodilation impaired by palmitic acid (PA) in wild-type mouse aortic segments. Ex-4 promoted phosphorylation of eNOSSer1177 and Akt, both of which were abrogated by PA, in human umbilical vein endothelial cells. In addition, Lina administration to ApoE−/− mice decreased oxidative stress, as determined by urinary 8-OHdG secretion and NADPH oxidase subunit expression in the abdominal aorta.Conclusion: Lina inhibited atherogenesis in non-diabetic ApoE−/− mice. Amelioration of endothelial dysfunction associated with a reduction of oxidative stress by GLP-1 contributes to the atheroprotective effects of Lina.
